Which risk increases when high-pressure hydrogen pipelines experience oscillating temperature variation?

💡 Explanation

Hydrogen gas embrittlement grows when thermal cycling of pipelines accelerates hydrogen diffusion into the structure following Fick's Law; because lower activation energies drive the *permeation process*, brittle fracture is likelier, therefore, rather than surface corrosion, hydrogen accumulates, with sustained loads rather than brief spikes.
